A friend of mine restored a 71 GTO with his dad. They did ALL the bodywork and it looked great. They took it to a "professional painters" They had put on one coat of prime and all the "painter" had to do was block sand, reprime, and paint. They paid $2,500 and it looked like $***!!! There was a LARGE clearcoat run on the trunk, and 4 smaller runs around the car. They also chipped the hell outta the nose, the headlight/grill piece, when they reinstalled it. They took it back and somehow got him to respray the trunk and nose and color sand the runs. I've painted 2 vehicles, both with acrylic, and have not had runs in either. I've even had compliments on my second paint job!!! I'm all for the "do it yourselfer" in me! When I spray my 67....if I ever get to it, I'm gonna try base/clear!
